Within a week, 2 persons have complained to me about snobbish people in their schools...
Snobs should really stay at home and sleep... We should understand that God has given every single one of us talents. A talent is a gift and we can't choose it. Some are good in writing... Some in drawing... accounting.. sports.. music.. IT... In any case, we all have talents... Just different ones. And A can't say to B that A is better, like a basketball is not any better than a table tennis ball... You just can't compare like that... It makes no sense. A basketball has its own role to play and similarly for a table tennis ball...
Well, and if both have the same talent, the one who has 'gone further' should just look ahead towards his goal and not turn around to mock at the other, lest he trips and falls. Eww, snobs can really get on my nerves...
We gotta understand that a talent is given by God and we must use it to glorify Him. Period.
Had a conversation with Jeff last week and he was sharing about his Batam mission trip with the SOT... I admire him a lot. Well, shall keep the conv private, all I can say is that he gave his all for the people. He was very focused on his purpose there and did a lot for the entire team... Even when nobody knew and some were even unappreciative... But at the end of the day, God knew.
And that was all that matter, wasn't it?
